Benefits of Rolling Over a 401k to a Roth IRA?

When you are saving for retirement, you may have access to a company sponsored 401k account. However, after you leave the company, you may have to close the account. When closing out a 401k account, you should consider rolling the money into a Roth IRA account. It is important to roll the money into a Roth IRA account because you will be able to avoid being taxed on your money. If you do not roll over your money, you could end up being taxed and may also have to pay up to a 10% penalty for withdrawing money prior to your retirement date.

How much of a penalty is there for the rollover of a 401k?

Most companies will allow you to leave your 401k plan with them as long as the balance is over five thousand. If the balance is lower than that they will most likely return it to you as a check. Rolling your 401k will usually cost you a 10% early withdrawal penalty. If you cash your 401k you will get a penalty plus have to pay a huge amount of taxes to the IRS. So consider all options before making the leap to switch companies.
